CVE-2026-0093: Elevation of privilege in Google Android
In multiple locations, there is a possible misleading UI due to obfuscation. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves misleading UI elements due to obfuscation in multiple locations within affected Android versions. It allows a local attacker with limited privileges to escalate their privileges without needing user interaction or additional execution rights. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.8, reflecting high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-451 (Incorrect Expression of User Interface in Security Decision). No official remediation or patch information is currently available.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges on the affected Android devices, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system. Since no user interaction is required, the vulnerability could be exploited silently by a local adversary. However, there are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, limit local access to trusted users and monitor for suspicious activity related to privilege escalation attempts.
